Leave or live? I live somewhere in BR2. A small rental and repair firm near me do have a Skoda Fabia 1,2 DSG on their books for about £40/day, I guess so could try that out.
I thought that all new VAG cars today had 7 speed dry boxes at least my 1.5 TSI Golf DSG would have were I to buy a new one before the ghastly MK8 comes out with its all electronic panel and no knobs!
I thought that in traffic the clutches would/will disengage, if stationary in traffic provided you kept your foot firmly of the foot brake or if Autohold were switched on, this would also disengage the clutches, though I cannot imagine how smoothly it would take off after 'prodding' the accelerator pedal. It seems that to avoid creeping one should allow greater distances between oneself and the person in front - all very well in theory.
I never realised how this system should require so much finesse and change in habits to get a decent smooth progress from it. Rapid gear changes aren't really my forté as I just want a nice easy time negotiating the busy roads of South London and crowded towns and save my left leg and knee from overworking
